See the 10 highest-rated running backs in College Football 25.
College Football 25 is one of the most anticipated sports video games in years, and we’re only a few days away from the launch on July 19th.
EA has revealed the ratings for the top 100 players in the game, led by Michigan’s Will Johnson, LSU’s Will Campbell and Oklahoma State’s Ollie Gordon II.
A total of 14 running backs landed within the top 100 overall players revealed by EA on Wednesday. Miami’s Damien Martinez, UCF’s RJ Harvey, Rutgers’ Kyle Monangai and Liberty’s Quinton Cooley just missed a spot in among the top 10 running backs at launch.
